Ok I've lost all my links to do the relay thing.
So after a 2 till 4 am google fest I've come up with this .


1/ I will run 2 new wires / fuses from the positive side of the batt to stop voltage drop that I have running wires from batt to fuses then back to the lights.The two wires fuses are the same as I had so if a fuse blows I still have some lights one wire feeds the left the other right

2/ After the high low relay I'll put in 2 relays these will be earthed to the chassis using the positive feed from the high low relay

3/ I plan to use the original plastic plugs putting new spade connectors so to make it as neat as possible that will leave two 10 amp positive feeds in the englne bay handy for when I want to go EFI

Hell no :strangle: :strangle:
Fucken thing I tried to hook the relays up after the switching relay and run them to earth all nice and tidy simple to wire up but Im getting the strobe light high beam when I turn off the lights .
So tomorrow I'll try and change the head lights over to positive switching on the relays and use the negative feed of the high/low relay to switch them on and just earth the lights to the body ,think I have to do that to run non sealed beams later any way ?

Wish I never lost the link I had that showed how it's done :deadhorse: :deadhorse: :deadhorse: :deadhorse: :deadhorse:
